No, i dont - they look shite anyway IMO

ahm mm

im confused...

Albert, as long as ADR approved and in good condition its ok :P

yeah yeah it is, there one sticker on the visor and one on the back of the helmet,

coz i full cbf put the visor down, sweaty n fog n shit :P

anyone taking a tyre guage - one thing i dont got lol :(

Chris I have a spare il bring for you....

Its not mechanical, kinchrome digital... we compared it to the mechanical one of Daves and its actually pretty accurate!! ... or you can wait in turn to use the good one! it glows in the dark... hence why I like it.... :P

p.s Corinne... BBC??? suciton cap.... therefore safely mounted yes??? :P

Albert,,,it's all cool mate,,,I'm thinking you are talking about the visor ,in a car with windows and a roof it doesn't matter.

You can do the hell what ever you like with the visor.Use it,,,don't use it whatever.

Help is only a question away and please ask.

Neil

Operation track bish completed at 10.30pm.... :P Massive thanks to Dave :P

Smoky, big thanks for the use of the rims for the slicks.... the design of them means they only JUST clears the caliper!!!

Cars packed, bags are packed, tools are packed.... think we are ready!!!

cool. so do we have to have "hans" devices?

and do we all have to have our sump plug and gearbox plugs lock wired?

what about the fire extingisher? its usaly just tek screwed in, is this ok?

and since our cars are all rated to over 2.5litres (turbo multiplier) do we have to have 3 litre catch cans?

also do we have to remove all window tint?

will we be black flagged for not running valve caps on our tyres?

do we have to drain our coolant and refil with a non glycol based inhibiter?

do we need window nets?

and if we have a harness does it have to be in date?

are secondary bonnet locks needed?

what about anti shatter adhesive covers to glass light lenses?

do we need a cams approved tail shaft loop?

lets be seriouse here lol.

things like floor mats, spare tyre( held in with bolts, and passed adr crash tests..) fine. no major oil leaks and nothing baulky loose in the cabin. thats about it. just common sence.

suction cuped electronics are allowed. your waring a helmet so what can it do to you......lets not be assholes like a phillip island..

its not a full on cams target scrutineering sesson peeps.

its turn up, get all the loose shit out of the car, on with your helmet and away you go. if we are going to be full on captain cams, (confederation against motor sport) then all the items i listed above need to be implemented, and some. or its just a half assed crock.. lol :P

lets just be realistic here.. cheeres :P

Wakefield are now even selling in car cameras... have a look when you sign up, they're on the shelf next to the helmets. My suction one is also rated to 150mph and has passed CAMS scrutineering in the past, but its up to the Chief Steward to make the final decision either way, so can change accordingly at their discretion.

Cool I havent seen there cameras,I will check them out cause looking for one to go in my car :(

I took my visor off Albert found it got in the way at times. Like the others said you dont need it down in the car..I put it back on the helmet when I go karting :P

I do find sunglasses help loads when the sun comes out on the track, can get a bit glary...but it's all personal preference..

Is there going to be shirts for this track day?? Like last time?

oh thanks Neil :P

again lol

yeah thats what i meant..

mm

omg

the rims i bought wont clear my calipers :P

The rims wont clear at all or just rubs? Are you using spacers?

maybe the wheel weights are hitting the calipar..

hahaha... yes!! Smoky's rims I borrowed had that issue.... yep.. all fits, *spins wheels* and bang... the weights caught on the caliper!!

Definitely check that out Albert... if you need spacers, I have a spare set of 15mm ones somewhere... il bring em to the track...

hi everyone! anyone else not receive their cams license from texi yet?? i tried ringing them too but number on their website goes unanswered.. or is it because they aren't in yet?

Also my brake pedal went to the floor last night, i hope i have enough time/talent to bleed them tonight or theres no wakie for me :(

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
    • Twas your car many moons ago that gave me the idea!
